Twenty deportees from the United States arrived in Liberia as part of a new agreement that could see up to 1,200 people sent there under the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. The 1,200 deportees are expected to include nationals from African countries as well as North America, South America and the Caribbean. Liberia's justice minister said most deportees had committed migration-related violations and could seek asylum in Liberia, while the U.S. agreed to extend visitor visas for Liberians and pledged $124 million in assistance. Immigration lawyers have said such third-country deportation deals are used to send asylum seekers to countries they have never been to, sometimes putting them at risk.
